Ahh, thank you! That's a relief lmfao

When I boot up my PC this weird pinkish white light turns on after a few seconds, the red VGA LED on my motherboard stays on for a few seconds before turning off but this white light stays on while my PC is running

I don't think my PC is suffering from any ill effects, it seems to run fine. This is a pretty new build, I've been using it for about a month and I'm happy with it but I can't find any information on what this light means.

I removed and remounted the GPU and reconnected all my power pins yet it remains on.

 

Anyone have any idea what this means? I've attached a video showing the light along with just a standalone pic

 

 

Specs:

Windows 11

B650 Aorus Elite AX

Ryzen 5 7600

RTX 3070-TI

B650 Aorus Elite AX

It's an onboard RGB that is quite a standard on GIGABYTE AORUS Motherboard

If it bothers you, you may disable or customize it at GIGABYTE CONTROL CENTER (GCC) at RGB Fusion section
Here is an example of mine (B650 AORUS ELITE AX)

I also add highlight to indicate location of the RGB onboard light that you mentions

P.S. Never thought met someone with exact same motherboard as mine here, congrats on your purchase and build

Ryzen 5600

Wait, I just realised that your CPU is 5600 while using B650 Mobo. Is it a typo? Do you actually mean Ryzen 7600?

I'm a fool, you're right, I'll edit the post to reflect that right now
